Sexualizing animals is unethical because animals do not have human intelligence and therefore cannot give consent. The entire premise of the furry fandom is "what if animals had human intelligence and did human things?"
In this fictionalized world where animals walk on two legs, wear clothes, talk to their friends in English, and stress about how they're going to pay for their apartment, and where, often as not, humans as such do not exist (for an example of such a world, please see Zootopia, Fantastic Mr Fox, etc.), it's not really out of line to draw a buff two-legged wolf man, give him the gruffest possible voice and make an animation where he talks dirty to you, and then go "man, I wanna have sex with that guy".
The important concept here is fiction, and being able to distinguish between it and reality. No one's going to suggest you're a criminal because you went on a killing spree in a videogame. In real life, where animals do not have human intelligence, furries react to people who want to boink actual animals the same way most people react to people who want to boink children, and for pretty much the same reason.
Is that like how child like manga cartoon girls are fictional and not just pedo fantasy bs?
I'm not a furry or into loli stuff but I think there's a big difference. Furries do closely resemble adult human bodies in every way, however lolis resemble human children.
Of course you think there's a different, you're into sexy animals, not sexy children.
You don't see how they're the same. They are the same type of thing. Sorry kiddo. Hate to break it to you.
Lol did you even read my comment? I'm into neither furries or loli. Perhaps you have a hard time reading from up there on your high horse.
The only difference between pantie shots of underage girls in anime and those in real life is the fact that one is on a screen. People who get off specifically to the fact that these characters are underage have no excuse for doing so besides being into children in real life. It is specifically their youth and by extension their lack of ability to give meaningful consent (because they treat anyone older than them as an authority figure) which, to a certain class of degenerate, makes them attractive.
If a real-life man who was short and had a childlike face was in a bar complaining about how his wife left him, and someone else in that bar thought he was hot, no one would begrudge them for it, because he's an adult. So it is with furries. We see that animals are not intelligent and cannot give consent and ask ourselves "what if they were intelligent? what if they looked human? what if they stopped being animals in any meaningful way besides having fur?"
🙄 everyone sees you as loving beastiality. It doesn't matter how much you defend it as fictional. Porn is fictional too. Furries are engaging with it and making it thier personality. It's beastiality in the eyes of everyone that sees you. That's it.
You can go on and on about it as much as you'd like. All I'm seeing is bullshit excuses, same as everyone else sees it.
Everyone, huh? Check the vote counters on any of the comments in this thread.
Furries up voting doesn't mean a thing.
Multiple people have replied to you defending me and led by saying they weren't furries. Why can't you just admit you're the only one who thinks they're disgusting?
Oh, my bad. Multiple people that are a into sexualizing animals have defended you. It must be ok then!
Fuck off
Sorry I can't hear you over the sound of everyone else in this entire community telling me I'm beautiful and perfect 💜
Ok weeb
